Wow, awesome tutorial video. I've watched hundreds of technical tutorials and I've never commented on one but this one was "the best." You nicely showed us how to connect a python script to Postgres using psycopg2. That's where everyone else would end their video. But then you threw it out and showed us that with a little more work, we could do it way better. Beautiful programming too. Even though you probably didn't make up the syntax, your explanation of why each part was necessary and shouldn't be different was superb. Liked and Subscribed
Thank you very very much for such kind words ! I appreciate you being a member of the family here, feel free always to ask your questions, and I will do my best to answer whenever possible. Thanks again my friend🙂
Hi @@BekBrace Your Video is really helpful, i am able to connect to DB but while in main i am getting like this in Run Connecting to postgreSQL Database ... connect() argument after ** must be a mapping, not NoneType Process finished with exit code 0 its the same code as yours, please help!
I am at 10:22 , at line 20 in config.py , have you putted "config()" only because you have mentionned the filename and the section when you defined the function above ? right ?
At line 20, you’re invoking the config() function; and by running the config.py file, it’s executed to call that config() function- but you can change both names, it will still work
@@BekBrace it wasn't my question. Actually , why is it possible to write the function with arguments and then call it without those arguments ; So what's the difference between a function with and without arguments in this case ?
@@ihebbibani7122 This has been 3 years, but for anyone reading this: It is because he is setting default values for the parameters/arguments. So it is always 'database.ini' and 'postgresql' unless specified otherwise.
incredibly helpful video. one question, to get the dictionary from the list of tuples around 9:10, why not simply do db = dict(parser.items(section)) ?
Fantastic video! I was wondering how you enable the description of classes or hints or arguments that go in on VS code. Is this an extension or does it come natively with intellisense? If so please suggest how to enable it? Liked and subscribed!

Data Analysis: If you have data stored in a PostgreSQL database, you can use Python to connect to that database and extract, manipulate, and analyze the data. Python has powerful data analysis libraries like pandas, NumPy, and SciPy that can be used to perform complex data analysis tasks on the data stored in the PostgreSQL database. Web Development: PostgreSQL is a popular choice for storing data in web applications, and Python is a popular language for web development. Connecting PostgreSQL to Python allows you to use Python's web development frameworks like Django and Flask to build web applications that interact with the database. Automation: You can use Python to automate tasks that involve working with the PostgreSQL database. For example, you can write Python scripts that perform routine database maintenance tasks like backing up the database, checking for errors, and optimizing performance. Machine Learning: Python is a popular language for machine learning and artificial intelligence, and PostgreSQL can be used to store large amounts of data that are used in these fields. By connecting PostgreSQL to Python, you can build machine learning models that use data stored in the database.
Hey I am watching this video 3 years later and I like the concept but I am currently experiencing lots of errors when I run the main.py, connection to server at "localhost" (::1), port 5432 failed: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "postgresql" this is the error I keep experiencing. Thanks in advance.
I tried doing what you suggested but I got an error after executing the config.py file. It says: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Janmielou\OneDrive\Documents\PostgresSQL\config.py", line 20, in config() File "C:\Users\Janmielou\OneDrive\Documents\PostgresSQL\config.py", line 15, in config raise Exception('Section{0} is not found in the {1} file.'.format(section, filename)) Exception: Sectionpostgresql is not found in the database.ini file.
I am getting "Section postgresql is not found in the database.ini file" error even if I write everything right. I have checked thousand times. What could be the reason of this?
Thanku good video. Have a doubt when i opened the site psycopg2 there could see the option pip install psycopg2 and when click on it only i get a copy option. And where i paste that link
thanks for the good job. I encountered such a problem. When I try to write the password wrong, print(error) is empty in the console. Why? postgres 10.15 psycopg2 2.8.6
Thank you for making such a great video. I encountered a problem with the main.py file. After running it I get the following error message: Conecting to the postgreSQL database ... invalid connection option "database"

Thank you 😊 that’s not the first I hear that and I don’t know if it’s good or bad 😂
would you consider moving the connection block of codes, above the MAIN, to another file and just invoke it in the Main.py ?
Nice video..
Yes, absolutely
I tried doing what you suggested but I got an error after executing the config.py file. It says:

Add the [postgresql] section to your database.ini file with the required settings.
I am getting "Section postgresql is not found in the database.ini file" error even if I write everything right. I have checked thousand times. What could be the reason of this?
Have you “pip install configparser “ ? It’s a parser problem, Python cannot read what’s in your database.ini file
@@BekBrace I will try.
Btw thank you for the really quick reply. I would pay for the video and the service.
